Mystery: Shadow of Order

"In order to eliminate the shadow in my heart, I chose to come to Backlund. Not long after that, I learned that Viscount Patton's temperament changed greatly due to the trauma of the war.

When I came to visit, I found that His Excellency the Viscount has not changed much. It's just because he rarely interacts with outsiders and is slandered by outsiders.

The Viscount once saved me, so I am willing to handle these trivial matters for him. So I attended the Butler Training School, and the Viscount accepted me and made me his butler. "

In Ruen, there is a special training school for housekeepers. Those who take part in the training undergo many courses, etiquette, alcohol knowledge, shooting, dancing, etc. Of course, not everyone is trained to be a housekeeper, and most start out as room valet, valet, silverware housekeeper or even wine housekeeper.

Rawls said with a smile:

"It turns out that it is, you are really a person worthy of respect."

Mr. Augst bowed his head slightly and said in a deep voice:

"No, I'm just doing my part."

"I admire you very much, Mr. August, but after all, I want to recruit a housekeeper who can help me. I wonder what you can do for me, Mr. August?"

Mr. Augst straightened his body slightly and asked in a deep voice:

"Please say it."

"Okay, I want to develop into politics. Do you have any good suggestions for Mr. August?"

"Is it in Backlund?" Seeing Rawls nodding, Mr. Augst frowned: "If you choose Backlund, it will be very difficult."

"Yes." Rawls spread his hands, "but this is something you need to consider."

Augst pondered for a moment, then said:

"I suggest you start with your career."

"Are you going to be a judge?"

Rawls was a little disappointed. He was looking forward to the butler who could "convince" Viscount Patton out of the trauma of the war and help him build a network of relationships. He would have some good ideas.

"No, you can't be a judge until you are at least thirty years old."

Augst understands Rawls's thoughts very well, and wants to enter the political arena quickly, otherwise with the current achievements of Rawls, he will naturally be able to enter the political arena smoothly after a few years.

Asking for advice from one of his housekeepers is not because he really considers his advice, but more because he wants to use his personal connections to better enter the political arena.

Stewards have always been linked to politics. If a big noble family with a butler is compared to a country, then the butler is the prime minister of the country. They can help the master handle almost everything.

And a butler from a noble family, in the past professional experience, this kind of person must know a large number of upper-class people, many professional butlers and countless servants, covering the upper, middle and lower levels. Effectively influence a gentleman's style, which is a necessary reference to enter a higher social circle.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"You are a very famous barrister in Backlund, and Adrian Law Firm is also a top-level law firm. The cases handled by you and your firm, the clients you contact are all resources you can have."

"Your suggestion is really good, is there anything else?"

He is very satisfied with Mr. August's suggestion, but it is not what he wants.

Augst smiled bitterly inwardly, it seemed that Mr. Adrian insisted on using his personal connections to help him.

"You can do charity."

"Which aspect?"

Charity activities are divided into many aspects. Taking Adrian's funds as an example, if you want to make achievements in charity, you must choose one that does more with less.

"How do you feel about pensions for retired soldiers?"

"No problem, they made sacrifices for our country, and they are naturally treated as they should."

Rawls got up and stretched out his hand:

"Re-acquaint yourself with your employer, Rolls Adrian."

Augst immediately stood up and saluted, and said in a deep voice:

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

Rawls waved his hand and said to Fitch beside him:

"Fitch, please bring that bottle of Allmere wine to Mr. Norman in the third parlor, and convey my apologies and thanks."

After seeing Fitch take away the bottle of Allmere wine, Rawls sat back again.

And Mr. Augst stood in front of Rawls without sitting down. Although he has not yet joined the job, he has begun to demand himself as the steward of Rawls. It is impossible for the steward to sit down in front of the employer.

"Snapped"

Rawls snapped his fingers and said with a smile:

"My villa has nine bedrooms, one large, two small, three living rooms, a dining room, two kitchens on the ground floor, a baking room, and about seven or eight servant rooms. Outside the villa, there are stables, a garden, a tennis court.

"But now I have no one but you, and Fitch, the temporarily hired coachman."

Augst lowered his head and asked:

"What do you need me to do?"

"I need you to hire all the servants that this villa needs as soon as possible. How many servants you want to hire is up to you. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"OK."

"Remember, be quick. I'm going to hold two banquets at the beginning of next month, and I need you to get ready as soon as possible."

Augst's expression suddenly became serious, and Rawls's words made him not serious.

In spring and autumn, the owner of the mansion usually invites VIP parties, which is the biggest test for the housekeeper. The house should be neat, the silverware and tableware should be clean, the garden should be beautiful, the dishes should not only be precious and exquisite, but also extra tableware should be provided for guests with special dietary habits.

Even the position of each set of tableware, the length of candles, the folding of napkins, the number of flowers, and the brightness of the lights must be strictly checked one by one.

"Sir, do you have a specific time and personnel list?"

"The first was probably on the 5th, and the second was on the 8th. The first banquet was attended by lawyers from my law firm, and the second was my neighbors and some of my father's friends."

Augst sighed in relief. Today is April 28, and the time is barely in a hurry. It's just that the time between the two banquets is urgent, but with the experience of the first one, the time should be reduced.

"I will give you the specific list tomorrow morning, and I will leave everything to you."

Rawls knew that this was a little urgent, but he couldn't help it. No one gave him time.

"it is my responsibility."

Augst bowed his head in a salute.

"As for the contract between you and the servants you hired, you can go to my law firm and find a solicitor to draft it."

"OK."

…

After watching August leave, Rawls leaned on the sofa and rubbed his temples.

He felt that this Mr. August was a colleague, a "lawyer" colleague!
